I recently used the gun metal iDye Poly using the stove top method and annoyingly managed to get quite a few splashes on my white microwave. Have only just noticed them so they have been there a few days. Ordinary household cleaners don't work so was going to use a strong bleach solution - but thought I'd better check first! Any suggestions?

yikes! The bleach might work, especially if you can make some sort of paste of it (a bit mixed with baking soda?). This can be a bit difficult as the plastic on the microwave is probably some sort of poly product.I'd stay away from products like GoofOff as I believe that can damage the finish of the microwave.wish I had the magic fix for you...

I have a similar problem. Spatters of dark blue on our white stove and toaster oven (and a bit on the yellow-painted wall behind the stove). The stove is the worst problem. Has anybody had any success in removing dark IDye Poly/Nylon from surfaces?

Is your stove enamel or powder coated? In most cases if the surface isn't very scratched or isn't a poly type finish a gentle abrasive like BonAmi should do the job. Or you might try one of the brands of 'erasers' like the Mr. Clean Magic Erasers.

Thanks, Annette! I remember hearing about those "Mr. Clean Magic Erasers" but I've never used them and don't even really know what they are. We tried "Softscrub" and that did absolutely nothing. I think I may look at the "Magic Eraser" thing and see what that even is; if that doesn't seem wise or doesn't work, we'll try the Bon Ami, although I worry that Bon Ami might end up scratching the finish. Of course, right now it looks much worse than some scratches probably would, so . . .

Just in case, while we're in the "idea gathering" phase, anybody else got any other ideas?
